feeling alive
How many of us have forgotten to live ,love and laugh?
I am seeing lots of people around me who where so enthusiastic in nature gone full silent and forgotten to live there life being engulfed to the day to day routine and monotonous life's.
Its really sad to see such an energetic people turning to the same old fashioned responsible people who never think about anything out of box.
No matter what age we are we should feel alive! otherwise there is no point of living this life..one day one fine day we all will die,..then there is nothing left..this beautiful planet..this beautiful nature..this beautiful people around us...nothing is left..so when we are living in this mother earth its important to feel alive,its important to feel happy..
Lot of people miss understand the feeling of alive with having alcohol,or by taking drugs etc..that's not feeling alive..its forgetting what you really are and doing things which you as a person never will do..its not the way to feel alive...its the way to trick your conscious..its the way to behave what you are not! so never get in to such activities to feel alive! if you want to knock out yourself out of this work and feel dead you can try all that! :)
According to me feeling alive is doing some thing,that will get you to the excitement of a child! and bring you to a state where you feel everything is beautiful in this world.And you will feel its worth living this life! It can be anything..any little thing...
Read this article in the internet felt its worth sharing!!! If anybody who read this and feels like to feel alive my mission is accomplished! :)
Forty ways to feel alive
1. Tell someone how you really feel about them instead of waiting because you’re scared.
2. Tell someone what you really want and need instead of building up resentment.
3. Share your fears publicly, in a blog post for example, and ask the community to keep you accountable in overcoming them.
4. Tell a friend your greatest dream, and then ask them to hold you accountable in pursuing it.
5. Admit to a friend how you really feel about how you spend your time—then brainstorm about ways to improve it.
6. Introduce yourself to someone you’ve been dying to meet, even if you feel nervous.
7. Ask someone who’s done what you want to do for advice and encouragement.
8. Tell your boss what you can do instead of wondering if you’ll ever move forward professionally.
9. Or tell your boss his services are no longer needed—then finally start pursuing your passion.
10. Tell yourself the truth instead of lying to yourself about the changes you want to make in your life.
11. Sign up for a class to learn a skill you’ve always thought would be fun.
12. If you can’t afford a class, look on Craigslist for free events related to that interest.
13. Ask a friend to teach you to do something you don’t know how to do—and offer to teach them something else in return.
14. Take that new class at your gym instead of worrying that you won’t be able to keep up.
15. Buy a new or used instrument and look on for instructional videos on YouTube.
16. Think of something you’d enjoy creating—a blanket, a song, or a small piece of furniture—and then do some research today to take the first step in doing it.
17. Write a blog post or take some photos and submit them to your favorite website.
18. Invite a few of your friends to play a sport you’ve always wanted to try, even if you fear you’ll seem uncoordinated.
19. Blast your favorite song and try a dance style you’ve always admired. Nothing makes you feel alive like getting your blood pumping!
20. Make a list of things you think you’d enjoy, and then pick one you’ve never done to try this weekend.
22. If you can’t afford that, research cheap ways to travel—staying in hostels, volunteering abroad, or transporting someone else’s car, for example.
23. Issue yourself a “life ticket.” According to Tiny Buddha contributor Jamie Hoang, we find ways to pay tickets when we get them because we have to. Think of travel in that same way—and be resourceful to make it happen.
24. Take a weekend road trip to somewhere close you’ve always wanted to visit.
25. Write down your three favorite hobbies and for each, a place you’ve always wanted to try (i.e.: a beautiful beach an hour away for surfing). Plan to go this weekend.
26. Invite friends to a restaurant, bar, or other establishment you’ve wanted to try, but have avoided in favor or familiarity. (Once you invite other people, you’ll be less inclined to change your mind last-minute!)
27. If you’ve avoided going to a new spot because it’s expensive, start a “fun night” savings jar today, and make trying that place a priority.
28. Make a list of fun “staycation” ideas (for daytrips in your area). Schedule at least two of them for the next month.
29. If there’s a conference you’ve always wanted to attend, book your ticket for next year, or see if you can volunteer there to get free or discounted attendance.
30. Plan some type of creativity-driven travel project—once a week or even month, take photos, draw, or write in a new spot you’ve wanted to visit
31. Jot down three qualities you’d like to possess, then three choices or activities that coincide with them (i.e.: adventurous—white water rafting). Make a plan to do that thing.
32. Enlist a friend to help you face it fear, whether it’s quitting your job or skydiving.
33. Create a positive affirmation to replace a limiting belief (i.e.: tell yourself, “I feel confident around new people” instead of “I can’t meet new people—I’m too nervous”). Then use that new belief to push yourself out of your comfort zone.
34. Think of someone you admire and write down three things they do that you don’t think you can. Now make it a personal mission to prove yourself wrong.
35. Think of something huge you’ve wanted to do, but feared you can’t. Now shrink it down to something smaller but related (i.e.: climb Mt. Everest could start with join a rock climbing gym.) Do that smaller thing today. It’s a start!
36. Ask a friend to describe your potential. Find the parts that make your heart race with excitement, and then take one small step today to work toward that possibility.
37. Set a 30-day challenge—i.e. write 5 pages every day without worrying if they’re any good; after 30 days, you’ll have a first draft of a 150-page novel.
38. Ask yourself, “What would I try if I thought I wouldn’t fail?” Take one tiny step toward that goal today.
39. Ask a friend or your significant other to design an “opposite night” for you—a night when the two of you do things completely opposed to what you usually do.
40. Share something you want to do but think you can’t in the comment section here. Just putting it out there is a great start!
This is obviously a large list—and there’s far too much to do all at once. But maybe you can pick just one thing that resonated with you, or pick one thing every week or month.
The point is to do something to feel passionate, excited, and exhilarated.
We all have different interests that inform what we want to do; and we all have different responsibilities that might limit how we’re able to do them. But we all have the ability to make at least one tiny change, or take at least one tiny risk.
Today I’m going to spend several hours doing something I haven’t done in 10 years with people I’ve never met. I feel terrified, but oh so thrilled and alive.
What would give you that feeling?

Death
death is a mystery to most of us..even to me..most of us fear death....I have seen couple of deaths in my life..death of my grand mother,grand father and mom's moms death...but saw the dead body of only my grand mother..fathers mother when I was in 9th stand she expired...She was looking cold..but same person no change..her legs where cold when I touched her..I think its better to not see a dead body..because seeing one will make us realize that person have already left from our life's...not seeing will not give that feel...it will give a feel that the person is still belong to our life..and there some where..where we can not see...
That is what happened with my grandfathers death..I could not see his body...they cremated him before I reached home from Bangalore..same with my muttassi..I dint see her life less body..she was already cremated...I was not much sad...the sadness started sinking in slowly whenever I go to her home and not see her there...
I have always wondered where these people go...death is of course a sad feeling...that's why most of the people hesitate to talk about it...every body know its an unsaid truth..every body have to kiss it one or another day...
I have imagined what will be after death..may be we will be still in this world..with out a body...free...able to travel wherever we want...able to travel with time..able to see the people ..feel the people...or its the end? nothing...its a forever sleep...I would like to see death as freedom..a freedom from all these worldly pleasures..a freedom from all the unhappiness happiness..a freedom from these materialistic life's..a freedom from all the boundaries and limitations..a freedom forever...
I have Imagined how it will be if a die under the water..or the ocean..I will fall down to the bed of the ocean...I will feel suffocated for a moment then the freedom...I will be detached from the body...I could travel in the air...I could reach to my home see my mom dad...go to Singapore and see what he doing..go to all the people I wanted to visit and see what they doing...can go to mountains..can see sunsets sunrises...my death wont be painful..it will be a freedom!!!
PS : Jiah Ghans death is quite disturbing....I think she would have also thought the same and would have embraced it willingly.

Thinking from a parents side
I have been through a lot of conflicts recently in past two three years with my parents,mainly with the matter of marriage.
And there was so much of emotional trauma that had happened in both the sides and I have hurt them badly for not understanding my point of view and they also have hurt me many a times by sticking to their opinion.
But this post is not about marriage or regrading the parent child conflicts,Its about what I might do when I am in their shoes (Which I am thinking now).
Mid fifties,or early sixties are supposed to be golden age for a man/women ,If they are married and their kids are well settled and their income is stable and financial state is stable.
That is the time we have to give time for our pending undone passions,or any wishes which was left undone.
because we have so much time in hand...not much of hurries..health is not deteriorating..no need to keep on watch with the kids,we have all attentions to our-self..and there is no financial problems..
But this syndrome I have seen in many of this generation parents,They worry a lot about daughter/sons marriage (I understand if the daughter/son is not settled there will be worry)or they worry if the daughter/son does not have children.And many many lists of worries like that.
Why worry if the son/daughter is not married,he/she is well settled they will find the right match when the right time comes..can you do some thing about it?, you can not.so instead of worrying just be happy that they are at least settled and manage to take care of themselves.
